摘要： A telephone system includes a telephone adaptor module with rule-based audio playback in wireless function programming capabilities. The system allows existing telephones to be retrofit with rule-based audio playback functionality. A physically independent remote programming device is used for transmitting function programming information in audio content to the device via wired or wireless transmission. Rule-based audio playback provides ring tone functionality in which user selected audio clips may be played back instead of the conventional telephone ring. The audio clip that is played when a call is received will be based on the rule-based playback scheme programmed by the user. Audio content may also be played back according to programmed rules which do not require a telephone call to be received, but can be activated by other conditions (time of day, temperature, etc.).

摘要： The timing and placement of advertising on TV, radio or other broadcast media can be automatically verified or audited by monitoring and recording channels of TV, radio or broadcast media by storing and tagging discrete portions of segments of the broadcast signals in a database. A controller, or “dispatcher” server, dispatches the files to an analysis server for performing various mathematical comparisons and statistical correlations on the audio and video signals for positively identifying one or more advertisements of interest. A report is generated, providing particulars about the airing times of the advertisement of interest and whether its content exactly matches the content of a reference advertisement used as the basis for the mathematical comparisons and correlations.
